I didn't realize that I hadn't updated this thread.
So I stared at that wiring for 2days and waited for something to jump out at me and say here I am. No such luck so on the third day I decided I'm just going to start swapping things out until something good happens. I started with a spare MSD box I had on the shelf...nothing. Then I pulled an old crusty coil out of my swap meet box. I couldn't for the life of me find a coil wire so I pulled the end off an old plug wire and stuffed it in the top of the coil. Jumped in and turned the key. VIOLA!!! We got fire. I just don't understand how a coil could go bad just sitting there. Friggin weird. Ordered a new one from Summit and it seems to be all good. Still haven't had a chance to get it out of the garage yet but it seems to run good. We shall see.
